History

Meriwether Park is situated within a residential subdivision in the western part of the city. Originally called “Hall Cove Park”, the site was developed in 1973-1974 on land acquired in 1967. Principal funding was provided through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The park is named in honor of former Little Rock City Manager, John T. Meriwether.
